consulate in benghazi, libya. it claims failure of leadership and management created a lack of security at that facility. four americans, including the u.s. ambassador chris teaches, were killed in that attack on september 11. the independent report calls security at the benghazi consulate grossly inadequate and criticizes the state department for not better coordinating what security was there and for relying on local militias. but it recommends no disciplinary action right now. the report also says the attack was the work of terrorists and that there was no protest outside the consulate before the attack despite those initial reports. of course, now the reason that turned into such a political football, we saw what happened to susan rice and that's a reason perhaps why she got derailed as potential secretary of state to follow hillary clinton. so the report kind of blames the system, but not any one individual, but says repeated requests for security were not followed by the folks on capitol hill, not by the sta
